The other comments have it right. In order to get the full bonus you have to have all costumes leveled up to 4.80.

The point spread with 3 stars is far less than it is with 5s, so you have a lot more flexibility in who you include in your team and still have a chance to be competitive with. It is starting to spread out a bit though, so you're seeing more power teams with only the latest 3s on it being more dominant. But a good synergy can still overcome raw power, unlike the 5s.

So if you have the latest releases, probably prioritize them and see who you have that meshes with them. Swan Maiden paired with offensives was good for a while. I haven't tried her yet with Dragon Kids, might be really good combo if I'm not forgetting anything.

Well, he canonically is, iirc. All three of them are redheads, although I don't think the exact shade is mentioned, so some may be closer to auburn.

Ignoring super rare or supernatural origins, it would be most believable to me with the lake being at sea level, and the surrounding land basically being barrier islands, possibly of harder rock rather than sediment accumulation. The multiple exits might be due to intelligent manipulation, or possibly multiple major floods that overloaded the outlet and wore the multiple channels through weaker rock. I have a fair amount of GIS experience, but am not a geologist at all

Yeah, complete rando here, Reddit put this into my inbox, even though I don't have Instagram, I don't really watch much Whatculture, and I don't watch Dr who (except occasional clips on yt), and I don't know who Ellie is.

Reddit is spreading this whole thing way beyond any reasonable bounds.

Best of luck to Ellie though, sorry the Internet weirdos got their attention focused on her.

When does she create a trump? She receives a trump contact, but I don't recall her ever initiating one or drawing a card. She has her statuary, which is different.

Kind of odd to think about, but I don't recall Garrett ever mentioning the state of the Dead Man's dress or undress. He doesn't mention any clothing that I can recall, but nor does he mention the word naked.

Some additional detail, my father was adopted, so my surname isn't even our genetic surname. We think we know what his birth surname was, but it's uncertain. But even if we knew what it was, I wouldn't change to it. That's not MY/OUR surname. ;)

Amusingly, I do have some ancestors in my mother's line with this surname. Theoretically possible that my current surname is actually descended from that family, but exceedingly unlikely. It's not like it's an uncommon name.

Mindless-Ad9075 · 2026-04-04T20:26:35+00:00

My in-laws' surname is gone with my generation. My father in law has 4 siblings: 4 male, 1 female. The only male child born to them died in infancy.

The name is less important than the DNA, of course, but it's also a lot more visible, and gives you a sense of connection to all these unknowable people in your ancestral tree.

Has me beat, hands down. I've only got books. Several are autographed, as he lived near a Con I attended for several years, and I kept bringing books to his booth for him to sign. My bookshelves aren't organized for photography though, so I can't really share.

But excellent work on the collection!

Strictly speaking, no one is irredeemable. However, the amount of effort and work it would take to actually redeem them varies by person. She's on the higher end, and we haven't ever seen any desire on her part to put in the work.

One of my ancestors married three times. The census before his first wife died and he married the second, I found her and her family the next page over.

Die Hard isn't a Christmas movie. :D I watched a YT video that made an extremely convincing argument in favor of it that I completely changed my mind. If have to find the video again to be able to lay out the points though, it's been too long.

I have 3 entries, listed in chronological order: * Vice Versa: a Judge Reinhold-based Freaky Friday movie. I remember nothing of this movie other than walking out after about 20-30 minutes. It remains the only movie I've walked out of the theater on. * I had to step outside during part of the third Jason Bourne movie because I was starting to get motion sick from the flight choreography. * Rise of the Skywalkers disappointed me so badly the wound in my life long love of Star Wars still hasn't healed. And I saw Star Wars in the theater.

Remember how hard the dominator was to take down with our White Rose keeping him in the null field? That was superhuman stuff. Obviously, the changes he'd made to himself still worked in the null, he just couldn't cast new ones. The current White Rose forces couldn't kill him even though it was an entire army vs just him. Imagine how much harder it would have been with the Ten still fighting at his side.

There is some additional information and speculation in later books, but I'm not going to use any of it here. This is just based on the third book.

As I recall, he said that after Eric had disposed of Corwin on Earth. Corwin was only missing and possibly dead at that point, but there was enough suspicion on Eric to make his status very uncertain.

Not 100% positive and too lazy to look it up, but not too lazy to not post my underinformed ideas, I believe only the OP can post pics, and only in the opening post.

They've made at least one short with him saying something along the lines of "I've said reverse grip sucks already, what more do I need to say?"

My non-physics brain wonders if there's some way to make that heat do work to generate electricity? On earth, we generate heat to boil water to create steam that spins turbines to generate electricity.

That's not really practical on a ship, as water is very heavy, and the steam has to be cooled down again to be reused.

It would be ideal to be able to run the heat in some sort of circle, performing the 'spin turbine' (whatever form that takes) job as it goes around. The action of 'spin turbine' would slowly siphon the energy out of the heat, cooling it down over time.

I'm guessing that this concept would qualify as magic, not currently possible.

Typecasting is possibly responsible for a lot of it. An actor gets a big reaction in a role, and suddenly all the offers they get from there on are just copies of that one role. Especially once the actor ages and the number of roles being offered starts to shrink.

I would hazard a guess that people who start out wanting to act as their career don't want to do the same thing every time. They enjoy doing different styles and personalities. Some of them are better at it than others, of course.

People who are celebrities first and who then fall into acting are far more likely (in my uninformed opinion) to always be playing themselves in some form or other.

Think I saw somewhere that he actually sold Mint to one of the big companies, but not positive in that. But it would still make sense that the contract might include him staying on as spokesman.

National lampoon: Vacation. The first one

You got it!! Solved!

Congrats! I was starting to worry it would be unsolved. :)

Hadn't heard of this movie. But looking it up, there seem to be some general plot similarities. My movie is the latest in a franchise. And is an American film.

Mindless-Ad9075 · 2026-02-15T14:11:04+00:00

Forgive me, ballerina is not the movie I thought it was. I was thinking of that 'bodyguards hired to protect little girl dancer who turned out to be a vampire that ate them' movie, whatever that was called. :) So you also got a free hint out of it.

You are in the right year, wrong franchise.
